When make is run the python script are created from *.py files that are changed to use the python given by PYTHON_PATH. And PYTHON_PATH is set by default to /usr/bin/python on Linux. This is nice except when you run make another time setting a different PYTHON_PATH, because, as the python scripts have already been created, make finds nothing to do. The goal of this patch is to detect when the PYTHON_PATH changes and to create the python scripts again when this happens. To do that we use the same trick that is done to track prefix, flags and tcl/tk path. We update a GIT-PYTHON-VARS file with the PYTHON_PATH and check if it changed.
